Love Began with the First Meeting

In the end, the wedding didn't eventuate. Drunk Wind fell from the Illusory Mount. Then he was trapped in the Yama's Palace forever. At The First Sight never again appeared in Dragon Yelling To The Sky Server District, either. That was the end of the drama. It was just one of the many things that could happen in the game. Though it attracted many eyes on that particular day, afterward, no one seemed to remember much about the incident.

Many things seemed to be back to normal again. Dragon was still a popular game. Dragon Yelling To The Sky was still a region filled with wars and wealthy players. Legendary Past would still bully LOL from time to time. Her name was always red, indicating that she had just killed someone else. But, Silent Sorrow wasn't the person who only talked to Legendary Past anymore. [Friend] Silent Sorrow: Sweet Dream, Proposal to be used in 24 hours. The price is 5201* Ingot!

(*TN: same pronunciation as "I love you" in Chinese)

Silent Sorrow had bought the item Proposal for Sweet Dream. Dragon was definitely a game for players to spend money in. For players who didn't spend money, they might usually get frustrated. Elsa was the latter. 'I didn't ask you to buy it. Hey! I don't really know you, please!' she complained inwardly.

Clenching her teeth, she switched the tab to the top-up section. There was little money left in her bank account, but she still bought 10, 000 Ingots.

Then she returned to the game and opened the trade section. She sent all the 10,000 Ingots to Silent Sorrow. Though the Proposal and 100 World Announcement Tickets cost more than that amount, that was the best she could do. She didn't want to take everything for free.

When Charlie realized what Elsa had just done, he felt like laughing. He had expected that she would do something like that. It might be too hard for his Little Bun's brain to figure out that he was proposing to her.

"Well. I would like to see," Charlie murmured to himself. "How are you going to live for the next half of the month?"

After accepting the Ingots that Elsa had sent him, Charlie didn't carry out any further action. His character just stood beside Sweet Dream, watching the other avatars pass them by.

His phone rang and he picked it up. "Yes?" His voice was as gentle as a breeze. "Let me guess. You want some supper?"

"You know me so well," Evelyn spoke in a spirited tone. "See you in ten minutes at the dorm entrance."

"Okay." Charlie hung up the call and he was still staring at Sweet Dream.

[Friend] Silent Sorrow: I have accepted the Ingot. But, I have become the joke on the entire server! Legendary Past as well! Just think about it.

Then a mischievous smile crept onto Charlie's face. He patted his nerdy room mate and said, "I'm going with Evelyn for some supper. You want to come along?"

"Okay!" He nodded. Rubbing his eyes, which had become dry and sore from excessive studying, he followed Charlie downstairs.

Evelyn had been waiting for Charlie. Feeling bored, she drew circle after circle with her foot. When she finally saw Charlie, she swung herself to him.

The nerd seemed to feel a bit awkward, which Evelyn had noticed. "Hey, nerd. Why do you look at me like that?"

The nerd's cheeks had flushed red, and he turned his head to the side and ate his food, not responding. He was just amazed by Evelyn's stomach and wondered how she could eat so much every day. 'Why isn't she putting on any weight despite how much she eats?' he thought. However, he began to think about something else at this moment. When he watched Charlie peeling the shrimp shell for Evelyn, his eyes were filled with confusion.

Charlie took a paper towel to wipe his hands and said to Evelyn softly, "Get enough sleep tonight. I will buy you breakfast and wake you up tomorrow morning. All right?"

"Sure." Evelyn nodded, feeling contented. However, she still felt awkward with the way the nerd looked at her.

After supper, Charlie accompanied Evelyn to her dorm. Once she went into the girl's dorm, he then walked back to his. When Evelyn wasn't around, the nerd adjusted his spectacles and asked, "Charlie, what are your feelings for Evelyn?" Charlie inclined his head and questioned back, "What do you think?"

The nerd rolled his eyes. "Evelyn is a nice girl. You shouldn't have a romance with two girls at the same time!"

Charlie suddenly stopped in his tracks and regarded his nerdy friend for a moment. Smiling gently, he turned and walked into the dorm, leaving the nerd behind to feel frustrated with Charlie's response.

Charlie felt at ease at the moment. Evelyn was his sister, whom he had taken extra care of since the day they were born. He, as well as the entire Long family, would support her no matter whom she chose for her other half. Regardless of whether she would enjoy love or get hurt by love. Charlie could tell that his nerdy friend had feelings for Evelyn, but whether those feelings would eventuate into a real relationship would still depend on whether the nerd was courageous enough to take the first step.

Pushing the door open, he planned to go to the bathroom to take a shower. On his screen, there were many messages sent from the Friend channel. In the Lover Valley, only Silent Sorrow and Sweet Dream were standing side by side. There was no one else, except for the NPC, the matchmaker, who was holding a red string.

"When I tie lovers up, they will never be separated! Let me tie you up, young lovers!" the NPC said.

[Friend] Sweet Dream: Hello, are you there?
